Frankincense & Myrrh fragrances blend two of the world’s most ancient aromatic resins, celebrated for their warm, resinous, smoky and slightly sweet profiles. Often associated with luxury perfumery, spiritual traditions and deep aromatic richness, Frankincense & Myrrh scents deliver a timeless, comforting warmth ideal for autumn–winter wear, evening occasions or anyone drawn to classic oriental perfume families.
What is Frankincense & Myrrh?
Frankincense comes from the Boswellia tree and is known for its citrus-resin top notes and clean, balsamic undertone. Myrrh, derived from the Commiphora tree, offers a deeper, earthy and slightly honeyed richness. When paired together, they create an aromatic structure that is both meditative and luxurious, used widely in perfumery alongside collections such as spicy perfumes and signature scents.
